Noah Schnapp is just like us. (Except for the fact that he's an award-winning star of a global phenomenon, but we digress.) Because sweet, 14-year-old Noah — just like us — has zero chill around his favorite celebrities. Take, for example, his unwavering love, respect, and admiration for Zendaya. (Same.)

While on the red carpet at the MTV Movie & TV Awards — which taped Saturday night but you can watch everything unfold on Monday, June 18, at 9 p.m. ET/PT — the Hawkins resident revealed just how excited he was to meet the Greatest Showman star and fellow nominee at the show.

"Zendaya's here," Schnapp toldVariety of the Spider-Man actress, who looked like a life-size chocolate kiss on the red carpet. "She's so pretty. I love her."

There's only one problem: He didn't actually get to meet Zendaya at the show! So she tweeted him instead.

Still, sometimes getting a tweet from your celeb crush is just as exciting — and less nerve-racking — than meeting them in person. (OK, meeting them in person is 100 percent more exciting, but what if you forget how to form coherent sentences when the time comes?)
